Media - Social Justice
Social media and images are powerful tools for covering social justice issues and raising awareness. Graphic photos can arouse strong emotions but also advocate for issues, which some see as crossing a line into activism. While vivid images are shared widely and help people understand crises, they may fail to explain underlying causes and instead just show human suffering. There is ongoing debate around the ethics of publishing graphic photos, with arguments that they inform but also could be seen as distasteful.
Social justice images1
This document discusses the power of images to convey information and evoke emotions. It notes that emotional and awe-inspiring images are most likely to be shared on social media. Vivid images that present content in a visual "language" can be understood by all people regardless of factors like literacy or culture. The document then examines a case study of the New York Times selecting a photo to accompany a story about the Somali famine, considering criteria like subject, quality, relevance, effect on audiences, and taste. Commenters debated whether the selected photo sensationalized the crisis or compelled action, and the line between journalism and advocacy.
A paradise built in hell presentation: Book Review
The document summarizes Rebecca Solnit's book "A Paradise Built in Hell" which argues that communities are often the first and most effective responders during disasters. Through case studies of major disasters like earthquakes and hurricanes, the book challenges the common perception that people panic and act selfishly in emergencies. Instead, it finds that people come together with altruism and mutual aid, and that crime and social problems often decline. However, the document cautions that while communities can be resilient, disasters themselves should not be desired due to their terrible impacts.
Chapter 4 Socialization and the Construction of Reallity
The document discusses several topics related to the social construction of reality including:
1) The concept that events are open to interpretation and realities are developed based on common social interpretations.
2) Muslim outrage over an anti-Islam film and the different views of freedom and insult between individualistic Western societies and communities in other parts of the world.
3) George Herbert Mead's concepts of the self and the generalized other in developing one's identity through social interactions and conforming to social norms.
4) Erving Goffman's theory of dramaturgy and the presentation of self through impressions managed using appearance, manner, risk-taking, and maintaining ideal standards in public.
Section b theorist revision
The document summarizes several theorists' perspectives on media representations of youth and how those representations relate to societal power structures and cultural norms. Some of the key points made include that media representations of youth often reflect adult anxieties rather than reality, can be used to reinforce dominant social values, and may influence societal perceptions over time through repeated portrayals that become normalized.
Empathy a teaching and learning strategy in a changemaker campus
Britt-Maj Wikström conducted a study examining the use of art in nurse education as a strategy to teach empathy alongside theoretical knowledge. The study found that presenting students with artwork and asking them to interpret the emotions and experiences depicted can help develop empathy. Using art as a complementary approach may foster empathy more effectively than theoretical knowledge alone.
CMS 498: Media
This document discusses various forms of media and their influence on society. It examines how media can shape societal norms and perceptions through both passive conformity and active interpretation by audiences. While some argue media maintains the status quo, others believe audiences engage with media creatively. The document also explores how media often reflects a male perspective, and discusses developing a critical viewpoint to identify and transform underlying messages.

This presentation explores how digital communication tools can contribute to dialogue and deeper understanding. It was presented at the Religion Communicators Congress 2010 in Chicago, USA.
~~~~~~~~~~
At all levels – from interpersonal and organizational, to community, country and world – human relationships experience conflict and need an infusion of deeper understanding and peace.
This workshop will explore ways that digital communication tools can contribute to peace building by enhancing our ability to empathize with each other more deeply, map conflict areas, or refocus dialogues around facts. Concrete case studies will ground this exploration in modern technical tools that can contribute to peace building, such as multimedia storytelling, Ushahidi conflict mapping software, and Web 2.0 tools.

Global media lesson 5
The document discusses several factors that influence whether a news story is considered "newsworthy" by journalists:
1. Stories about powerful individuals, organizations, or institutions (the power elite), famous celebrities, entertainment, sex, or that surprise or have unexpected elements tend to be newsworthy.
2. Stories with positive news like rescues or cures, large scope/impact (magnitude), relevance to the audience, or that continue news topics (follow-up) are also more likely to be selected.
3. Negative stories involving conflict, tragedy, or that fit the news organization's agenda are also more apt to be chosen as newsworthy.

Chapter 11 - Media
This document summarizes key points about gender representation in media from a chapter. It discusses how a gendered lens is needed to analyze media critically. All forms of media should be analyzed as they all influence understandings of gender. Economic and institutional forces shape media messages. Media influences social norms around gender by providing models of masculinity and femininity. While beauty standards are imposed on all women, the specific standards vary between cultures. Media content focuses on topics like violence, sex, and minority stereotypes which can influence behaviors. The male gaze constructs passive female and active male roles. However, gender is a social construct that is always changing.
Gendering The Arab Spring
This document summarizes a study on young Arab women journalists and their use of social media for activism during the Arab Spring. It finds that social media allowed women to mobilize support, document human rights abuses, and raise awareness of women's issues. However, the future progress of women's rights depends on stability in their countries and overcoming challenges like sexual harassment, political Islam, and prioritizing other issues over women's concerns. While social media helped activism, real-world change requires continued efforts by women themselves.

Critical theory presentation 4.16.12
The document summarizes and discusses the key points from the essay "Toward a Theory of Minority Discourse" by Abdul R. Janmohamed and David Lloyd. Specifically:
1. The authors investigate how minority discourse develops and is incorporated into dominant discourse, noting that minority discourse is often "damaged" by the dominant culture.
2. They discuss problems with assembling a theory of minority discourse, such as issues of power and pluralism, and propose solutions of articulating alternative practices and collective subjectivity.
3. A focus is placed on including minority works in the dominant discourse and reinterpreting perceived differences or inadequacies in minority works as indications of alternative values opposed to the

They use familiar codes and conventions to appeal to audiences and allow audiences to choose media based on genre. Genres also provide audiences with different types of pleasures and evolve over time as society changes.

Cultural Work 1RUNNING HEAD CULTURAL WORKCultural Work
Cultural Work 1
RUNNING HEAD: CULTURAL WORK
Cultural Work
Student Name:Saul Gallegos
Date: 03/26/22
Given the cultural work you have selected in Module Two, take time to work on the following:
1. Thinking of the work selected, explore how acts of creative expression impact, and are impacted by, the people and situations surrounding them.
For the cultural work paper, I carefully chosen the monument, name The Statue of Liberty. Now, the question that chiefly comes to mind is how did the particular statue come to be and why was it even made? Originally, the Statue of Liberty planned for the canals of Suez in Egypt. The late Frederic Bartholdi goes to see Eygpt and was fascinated by the proposal of their pyramids and sphinxes use. He successfully formed the design in the slave form for the canal entrance but the Egyptians did not like the idea so he fetched the idea to Edouard de Laboulaye.
Laboulaye very well enjoyed the idea and inclined it to the Americans and took a very long
while for them to get used to the same. Nowadays, the Statue of Liberty has a much dissimilar meaning to people. Even, people find it as a symbol of hope and strength. Some people get this heartfelt feeling of “welcome home”. Moreover, the statue has many diverse meanings to people around the world (Eggers, 2017).
2. State questions about the relationship between culture and expression.
● What makes one to arrive at the choice of clothing for the Statue of Liberty?
● How did the Americans feel about this monument when it was taken to them?
● Was the statue formerly a black woman?
3. State questions about your values and how they are shaped by the expression of others.
● What stories have rooted my values and statue worldview?
● What is the standing of the Liberty location?
4. Determine how you would go about answering the questions posed.
For this, I will give a start to my research by exploitation of all the sources of the Shapiro Library. Then, it has to continue my research to discover stories in the New York Times on the subject of liberty.

Specific films and newspapers are mentioned as examples to analyze how media representations of youth often reflect the anxieties of middle-class adults and reinforce the dominant ideology. The suggested essay structure includes an introduction, historical analysis, analysis of different media forms, and a conclusion that summarizes the argument.

This document discusses the concept of moral panic and how new media is making it easier to create moral panics that may distort public views on issues. It provides background on moral panics, including key characteristics and examples throughout history. Specific groups that moral panics often target are identified. The document also examines how social media in particular has influenced moral panics and discusses some criticisms of the concept. Both positive and negative impacts of increased moral panics in modern society are considered before the document concludes.
U.s. youth produsers & news media
A presentation for students at the University of Aarhus as they launch a study of young people and news in Denmark. This presentation reviews findings from an ethnographic study of U.S. urban young people. The study looks at how newcomers to political interests become sutured into journalistic practices as produsers. It proposes that we are seeing the rise of a new form of journalism here identified as connective journalism. This theory builds on existing ideas of "produsage" (Bruns), ambient news (Hermida), affective publics (Papacharissi), and shareworthiness (Linaa Jensen).
The Portrayal Of Beauty In The Media
The media's portrayal of beauty has negatively impacted society by promoting unrealistic standards. Studies show this causes body dissatisfaction, especially in young people, and can lead to bullying. Both men and women now feel pressure to attain the idealized versions of beauty promoted by social media, television, movies and magazines. This paper will explore how the media influences perceptions of beauty and how some feel compelled to change their appearance to avoid social stigma.
Communications and new media 2014
Communications and media have changed dramatically in recent decades. The document discusses several theoretical perspectives on how media influences culture and society. It analyzes the role of media through the lenses of functionalism, political economy, public sphere theory, and hyperreality. Scholars debate whether contemporary society reflects more of an Orwellian or Huxleyan vision of media control and the challenges it presents for democracy.
Médiamanipuláció
This document discusses media manipulation and mind control. It outlines several tools used for media manipulation, including persuasion, misinformation, distraction, and repetition. It notes that controlling a small number of major media companies allows for orchestration of propaganda. The five biggest media companies that control most music, movies, and news are identified. The document suggests these companies are controlled by a global elite who aim to dominate the world economy and political systems. It notes what is rarely discussed in the media, such as the role of propaganda in democracy and how the public is distracted from important issues.
What is news? Elements of Newsworthiness
Millennials are strong news consumers who primarily get their news through social media like Facebook rather than traditional sources. A study found that over 60% of millennials regularly keep up with news online, with news ranking as the third most frequent online activity. While traditional news values focus on timeliness, prominence, proximity, and other factors, digital media is evolving news through participatory and shareable elements. Stories like Kony 2012 show how user participation can drive news spread online. The document discusses different types of news and encourages selecting news topics to curate through tools like Storify.
Final Manuscript
1) Brandon Stanton created the blog Humans of New York to share portraits and stories of strangers in New York. He now has over 11 million followers and has published two bestselling books.
2) Stanton embarked on a "World Tour" in 2014 in partnership with the United Nations to bring awareness to issues like poverty and help achieve the UN's Millennium Development Goals. He traveled the world taking portraits and collecting personal stories.
3) An analysis of comments on Stanton's posts during the world tour found that sharing personal stories helped challenge stereotypes by humanizing controversial issues and marginalized communities. It allowed for productive discourse that resisted harmful narratives promoted by mainstream media.

Contemporary British Cinema and the Representation of British Youth
The document discusses the representation of youth in contemporary British cinema. It analyzes films like "Harry Brown," "Eden Lake," and "Attack the Block" which portray young people, often depicted by the media as "hoodies," as monsters that threaten normality. The document discusses how these films relate to concepts like cultivating fear of working class youth and reproducing social order. It also examines how "Attack the Block" subverts expectations by initially showing the youth as monsters but then transforming them into heroes who battle actual aliens.
Youth ppt
Youth are represented in the media in complex ways that both reflect and shape societal views. Historically, representations have dichotomized youth as either a "prosperous future" or a "culture of moral decline." More recently, films like Quadrophenia portray British youth subcultures of the 1960s in a realistic light, drawing on theories of how collective identities form through shared cultural texts. However, some representations may also promote the values of ruling classes and fix social divisions through the process of cultural hegemony described by Gramsci.
Evening Rounds Vol. 15: Digital Narratives
As communicators, we are deeply embedded in the act and art of storytelling. The rise of social media and digital and web-based technologies is pushing the “story" into new shapes, forms and directions that allow for multiple perspectives, real-time dialog, audience participation, and in many cases, social change.
We host Aaron Goodman, documentary maker, multimedia producer and founder of StoryTurns, to explore opportunities to support individuals to share compelling first-person stories. Learn more about collaborative and supportive workshops that allow organizations to harness stories that can serve as powerful tools for change.
G325 l9
This document provides an overview of concepts related to representations of youth in media and moral panics. It discusses Stanley Cohen's concept of moral panic, where exaggerated media coverage leads to politicians and police acting to return social values of normalcy. Youth are often portrayed as "folk devils" to reflect adult anxieties. Theories from Acland, Gerbner, and Galtung & Ruge are also summarized, explaining how media representations reinforce social order, influence perceptions of crime, and use selective gatekeeping to determine newsworthiness. Examples of past moral panics around various media are also briefly outlined.

Christian persecution in Islamic countries has intensified, with alarming incidents of violence, discrimination, and intolerance. This article highlights recent attacks in Nigeria, Pakistan, Egypt, Iran, and Iraq, exposing the multifaceted challenges faced by Christian communities. Despite the severity of these atrocities, the Western world's response remains muted due to political, economic, and social considerations. The urgent need for international intervention is underscored, emphasizing that without substantial support, the future of Christianity in these regions is at grave risk.

Media & Social Justice
- 1. How do media cover Social Justice? By Diana Elbasha
- 2. Objectives By the end of this lesson, students will… • Understand the meaning of social justice and which issues constitute “news” • Gain perspective on how social justice has evolved in recent decades • Know the most effective ways of covering sensitive social justice topics • Understand the effects of different types of media on a story
- 3. Social Justice Defined Social justice generally refers to the idea of creating an egalitarian society or institution that is based on the principles of equality and solidarity, that understands and values human rights, and that recognizes the dignity of every human being. Education and Social Justice, J. Zajda, S. Majhanovich Includes topics such as poverty, discrimination, racism, injustice, civil rights, and humanitarian issues, among others.
- 4. Social Justice in Images is one of the Conveying information through images most effective, emotion-arousing forms of communication. - Research has shown that emotional content is the most likely to become viral, as are “awe-inspiring” stories that force readers to view the world differently. - News-related images are more likely to be shared than humorous ones, according to research by Social Media Expert Dan Zarrella. - “Vivid” images are particularly effective because they present content in a “language” that is understood by all people, regardless of literacy, culture, etc. All brains have the same capability of interpreting images.
- 5. In Perspective Read this Washington Post story and view some photos depicting the 1999 Kosovo conflict. Note the differences in detail between these two features: the use of imagery through words versus imagery through photos. • Photos were successful in capturing emotion through tears, facial expressions, dead bodies, etc. • Which medium did you personally prefer?
- 6. Ethics, debate, etc benefit of images for this cause specifically – research? Pie chart?
- 7. ACTIVITY You are the editor of the New York Times. You must select one of these photos to accompany a front page story about the Somali famine. How will you make your Click to view larger decision? images
- 8. This was the Times’ actual front page. While Executive Editor Bill Keller took some heat for running this photo, he stood by the decision, calling it a “no-brainer.”
- 9. Images, continued Discussion: • How did you feel after viewing the Times’ slideshow? • After seeing the photos, do you feel more compelled to take action to help the Somali cause? • Where is the line for journalists between informing the public and advocating for a social issue? • Is it okay for journalists to advocate for global crises? content: TIME’s “100 Photos that Changed the Related Are there exceptions? World”
- 10. There is an ongoing ethical debate about publishing graphic images of humans in such circumstances. Is it part of covering news, or is it Here are two opinions on publishing photos of famished distasteful? Somalis. “The fact that people far away can see with visceral immediacy the facts of a crisis like the one now hitting the Horn of Africa is one of the most optimistic aspects of the modern world. Consciences are awakened by the camera ... [these pictures] tell the whole world what will happen across the region unless urgent international action comes immediately.” – Jonathan Jones, The Guardian “The photographs fail to show the reason why so many people have reached this state of destitution. Underneath the high visibility famine lies an age-old and sustainable way of living that has been disrupted by a modern world system, and whose ability to adapt to the cycle of drought has been severely undermined.” – Helen de Jode, The Guardian
- 11. Photographers aren’t the only ones using images:
- 13. What messages are these cartoons conveying?
- 14. The “Happy” Side This Pulitzer-winning image illustrated what photographer Carol Guzy called a “happy” moment in midst of conflict in Kosovo: a lost baby had been found, and was being passed over a fence to his parents. How often do you feel you get the positive side of a humanitarian conflict? In your opinion, was covering this moment necessary? Helpful to understanding
